    I enjoyed the Mayweather/Merchant craziness, but honestly I wish Larry Merchant would retire. I don't enjoy his commentary, he sounds like the male version of Dianne Rehm or something. Kellerman should handle all of the commentating and post fight interviews. Or spend the money to get someone like Costas.

    Larry Merchant is right up there with my least favorite commentators. I'm sure he's not a bad guy.

      I don't understand why Merchant hopes that Mayweather will talk to him after the fight. Anyway, naming him as a commentator adds more ****e to the bout knowing Mayweather's and Merchant's history.

        After all the years Mr. Merchant tends to forget that the fighters are the ones we want to hear and see. Especially the best ones like Floyd. His high level of disrespect for one of the best shows his lack of professionalism. Floyd should refuse all Merchant interviews. Instead he should go talk to whoever else is ringside.

Unlike many, I don't believe that his lousy behaviour is because of his claiming the position of "the bad guy" just as a self promotion stunt.

          I believe that his fans found this excuse in their frantic attempts to excuse him from the "thug" persona, and after a while, seeing how things were, he grabbed it and pretended that it was all a game. One can only assume that he beat up his former girl friend and his children to make it more authentic......As far as I can see, he has been getting stradily worse, and has been-only temporarily I believe-stopped by the sobering thought of the gaol sentence.

          I think there will be an interview.
          Well I think he'll stand firm on his decision this time Floyd is pretty much done with Merchant

            I was thinking the same thing... just let Max do it. Max gives good interviews and he lets the fighters talk.

            Hell, he does the Face-offs with them and they all seem to respect him as well.

              "You could put 10 Larry Merchant's in a ring with Floyd Mayweather and they all could be 21, and they all gonna come up short."

                Except no one wants to hear a fighter say..."I wanna give a shout to god, god again, the whole money team, god aka money team CEO, Ellerbe, money team, god on repeat, shout out to the money team again."

                  Boxing will be much more enjoyable once Merchant and his homie Arum are gone....

                  If HBO has any sense they will have Max do the post fight interviews.

                    Exactly.

                    How many times does the guy have to thank everyone? No one cares

                      You sound dumb as hell. Most fighters have just went months training/dieting, and just got done performing in one of the most dangerous sports. And you have a problem with them thanking people for 20 seconds, after going through all that? smh.
